I was watching a video on Willem Dafoe on his iconic roles, and his passion to craft and life, and positivity, exudes from him immensely. In that video, I am surprised he remembers from which of his movies the lines came from. It made me love him more as an actor because he loves life and his job.
But then during the interview, I remembered too when I watched Kevin Spacey’s interview before, admiring him and it turned out he is a creep. I was telling to myself about Willem Dafoe “please don’t be a creep, please don’t be a creep.”
Willem seems like a genuinely nice guy though but I hope I don’t get proven wrong!
Edit: clarified the title
I have a lot of criticism for most kinds of celebrity worship threads, but I’ll just throw my hat in for Jack Black. He seems like a good guy who likes making people laugh (myself included).
Only partially an actor, but I sincerely hope Weird Al Yankovic keeps being as awesome as he is.
They made a real life documentary about his life a couple years back. Squeaky clean.
I dunno, he was involved in some really shady polka parties.
Keanu
I still recall a story on Reddit where someone claimed to have stumbled upon his house while hiking and Keanu offered to give him a ride.
I know who you meant but why my brain pictured Keanu the cat.
The #1 thing to know about Willem Dafoe is apparently he has a monster cock.
One film, he had a nude scene, and they had to set him up with a body double because his own was too distracting.

Von Trier replied: “We had to [have a stand-in d**k], because Will’s was too big.”
Journalist Peter Keough then asked Von Trier: “To fit on screen?” to which he replied: “No, too big because everybody got very confused when they saw it.”
Tha is for this, Jordan. This is really what my day needed 😊
People used to talk about Uncle Miltie, but Willem actually got naked for the sake of art.
Nathan Fillion, Christopher Walken, Tom Hanks
Hummm… maybe don’t read up on Christopher Walken and Natalie Woods…
I’d never heard of the story so went off digging. There’s a decent video here. Doesn’t throw any shade at Walken in fairness.
It’s a weird story, and I feel at worst Walken is involved. But yeah, even with this I still feel Walken is not one of the worst.
I definitely hope Tom Hanks isn’t a perverse person!

I’m worried if I actually answer this I’m going to get replies like “Haha yeah they seem so nice right? Anyway here’s a video of them kicking a cat while bragging about all the assaults they’ve gotten away with”
Anyway John Cena seems so genuinely kind I’d be crushed to find out otherwise. Weird Al, too, always seems like he’s just a really friendly weirdo trying to bring joy to everyone
John Cena claimed Taiwan was a country, then had to make an apology video - in Chinese - for referring to Taiwan as an independent nation. I hope he was just forced to say that under contract, but it’s kind of shitty he had to apologize to China. I’d respect him more if he stuck to his guns and stood up for Taiwan.
Not to be apologetic for John Cena, but it is technically correct that Taiwan is not an independent nation. I’m not going into too much details but I think the broader implication for not supporting Taiwan at any capacity is that Mainland Communist China’s dominance in Asia will get more credence, and signaling that the world will not support a democracy to sustain their way of life.

When I was a kid, I thought Fat Albert reruns were awesome…Yeesh.
When I was pretty young I was a little reflexively racist, didn’t trust the black kids in my class kind of thing.
Bill Cosby’s comedy got through to me. I’ll be damned if he’s gonna take back from me the good he gave me.
Fresh Prince also helped. Carlton showed everyone that black people could be white as fuck 😂
I loved that show as a kid. My dad and I watched it every Saturday.
I admire Ed Harris as an actor. Worst I’ve heard about him is that he can be “serious” on sets (and I believe it, look at The Rock’s outtakes), but that’s just fine with me.
My bunny Ben does great impressions of Joe Pesci, just masterful performances. Most of Ben’s scandals are actually normal for a bunny, like pooping on the floor. I hope he keeps it that way.
